Advantages: Realistic portrayal of violence. Stylishly directed.
Disadvantages: May put people off from going to Bangkok. Not easy to see the film outside of Thailand. Maybe too violent for some people.

This is one of the best films I've seen in 1999. The story is about a professional hit-man (kong) who became deaf and dumb when he was bullied as a child. He then grows up to believe that no one cares about him, so why should he care about anyone else. For me his deaf and dumbness adds tension to the story because his emotions are portrayed with actions rather than words. As a teenager he meets Jo and Aom and gets involved as a hit man in Bangkok. ...
...Then one day he meets a girl from the local pharmacy. This is when he starts to realise that there are people who care. There are other subplots to this film, but if I say anymore I'd give the plot away. Along with a fantastic Hardhouse soundtrack during the action scenes mixing in very well with a more classical theme during the moral parts of the story. The action can be very realistic and very cold at times. There is a rather disturbing gang rape ... Read review

...sure when I first saw Dust Devil except that it comes under that category of late one night I ended up watching some film, I know not why, and was amazed. Such is Dust Devil. Then, yesterday, I saw the DVD, and heedless of price I bought it, knowing that it is practically a 'lost' film, though it was only originally released in 1992. I didn't want to get home, search the internet for the cheapest price, only to find it out of stock, out of stock. ...
...after all, date badly. Dust Devil has dated slightly. It is clearly of the period. But it did not disappoint. It did not disappoint at all. Though ostensibly a horror film, to call Dust Devil a horror movie is a mistake. Especially as a lot of low budget horror movies rely on guts, gore or grisliness. Dust Devil relies almost entirely on mood, tone and performance. There is a great deal of suspense but no chills, thrills or shocks exactly. There ... Read review
